I have a similar problem on FC1 and I cannot mount the usb stick on
/dev/sda1. Here is what my /etc/fstab looks like...
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb vfat
noauto,owner,user,sync 0 0
The error message is
mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
